William Fraher interview on WLR fm on Heritage Week project

Waterford County Museum has recently published online and in the local press a series of articles about vintage ironwork in Dungarvan. This project has been expanded for Heritage Week to include the entire county.

Last week the curator William Fraher spoke to Geoff Harris on WLR about this Heritage Week project.  He is encouraging people to send in images of ironwork along with information on the piece to info@waterfordmuseum.ie.

He is asking people to become ironwork detectives.  Their mission is to seek out examples of ironwork in their locality and photograph or draw them. The images with any information should be emailed to info@waterfordmuseum.ie

Suggested examples include house and field gates, window guards, drain covers, lamps, seats, railings, pillars, graveyard memorials and grave surrounds, post boxes, pumps, etc.

All the images and information will be combined with the material collected to date and be made available as an online resource for the community.
